Geez, Brandon, give yourself a few minutes to heal!

I'll bet they were trying to get every single little bit of your thymus. Have you spoken to the surgeon yet? They usually come in to check on their patients after they carve them open.

I haven't had a thymectomy, are the lung drainage tubes standard? I'd ask them about that for sure.

I'm sort of having fun trying to figure out where they put the three IV's.

I hope you feel better very soon. Whenever I've had surgery, the first week is the worst as far as pain. Take it easy with any morphine!
